Testimonials

I’ve experienced a consistently high level of care and consideration throughout the entire planning and investment process. Although based in Noosa, they are always happy to travel when needed, which makes things so much easier. What impressed me most was the long-term commitment. We’ve been working together for almost two decades and the outcome has far exceeded my expectations. I couldn’t be happier with the result.

Heather Glen

The personal attention and consummate level of attention shown to me by the team at Ord Minnett has been exceptional.

Being new to the Sunshine Coast I was fortunate enough to be referred to Chris and Tom and after comparing other financial consultants the decision to go with them was an easy one. Any concerns I had regarding making the transition to retirement was soon eased by their thorough knowledge, ability to communicate in a way that I would understand and constant willingness to be available to answer my questions.

I would recommend Ord Minnett to anyone seeking a a highly professional team who are passionate about helping individuals with their financial security but who care about you and your needs as well.

Sharon McManus

My wife and I have appreciated working with Chris and his team since 2012. His level of financial strategic knowledge has guided us to make the right financial decisions throughout our time together.

Chris has looked at the whole picture, planning now and into the future for just not the two of us but also our children and grandchildren. Chris is not only extremely competent, but he is freely available and happy to answer any questions. He is friendly and happy providing reassurance and skillful advice. Now based in Noosa, his willingness to travel and tailor his approach to our needs has been invaluable.

Over time, the results have exceeded our expectations, providing lasting value and peace of mind for the whole family. We have no hesitation in highly recommending Chris and his team for their professional and beneficial financial advice and care.
